Hello, well for those of you that have received or are going to receive either version of the Arcadia SDF, I PM’d Yeti about working on a better, more dynamic stand than the one offered in the box. He thinks he might be able to cobble something together, which I will help by providing measurements. Me, I ordered the premium version b/c who cares...so, once I receive it I will be sending measurements, pics, etc to Yeti to work on the stand. If anyone is interested and wants to help with measurements for Yeti that would be awesome too!!

I agree, this has been so far the best looking release for any MB. Disappointing that the momentum sorta stopped with the announcements from the event. I guess the GFFMC Wing Gundam is another release to be excited over b/c it appears to be at least a new design as well.- 6025 replies

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Aye Aye replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Really disappointed in this move. Didn’t the fan polls for the next MB declare the nu Gundam the winner? Why go faux PG with it? In my eyes, I echo that this looks like a ‘re-badge’ of the PG Unicorn. I know Bandai wants to reuse/re-purpose molds to help with the development costs of these figures, and across multiple toy and kit lines, but I really wish they took the time to develop a de facto MB Nu instead of this. Also the Strike MB is pretty irrelevant compared to the PG Strike as it is one of the best kits still to this day. It’s not like the masses were clamoring for this to be MB’d. I guess if you wanted it with the launcher and impulse packs then this might quench your thirst, but the proportions are skewed, especially considering a fully painted PG Strike with Aile Pack is so damn amazing. I know it’s completely different line and hobby offering, but in my opinion, if I own the kit, I am not going to buy the toy version of it (Strike Freedom excluded bc it trounces the PG IMO).- 6025 replies

Well, dang, I just checked out the forum didn't even think about us p-bandai getting the Wing Zero, and had the proxy buy from p-bandai jp. They still have the PO open on the jp site. I guess, I am just going to leave it...- 6025 replies

Hmmm decision decisions. How much shelf space does this beast take up? Anyone with a yammie that has the tale of the tape?

The power arm set is ridiculous. Not sure where I will ever see or fit that for display. Might have to stick that one up for sale. Good lord.- 6025 replies

I hear you. My point is that the CR site is a pretty viable option, albeit I have had a longer wait for some releases from it. Cool they have the quan(t) for PO.- 6025 replies

Hey don't sleep on the CR webstore. I actually had to PO the dang Sazabi Formania EX from them. Its random but they do get some good stuff from BlueFin I guess.- 6025 replies

I sold my original Regults and then regretted it. Wife (who is Japanese) confirmed the set contains two Regults in the above mentioned post, which necessitated an instant PO. I own zero HM-R valks, but PO'd the hell out of the VF-2SS. It has been 25 years in the making, and a wish fulfilled since the old B-Club magazine that featured the craptastic, transformable model kit Bandai did in 1992. I don't care at all about the alt-universe situation, I have lots of love for the VF-2SS, and the ET line was just not cutting it. Bandai putting in work on the HM-R line and its paying dividends!

Speaking of option sets how many went balls deep crazy and ordered all of the red frame option sets? It literally is the release that can't stop releasing! I got the dorky huge sword hilt/power arm set. Forgot I nabbed it and its just sitting there with the proxy. Anybody else get that thing and if so, had a chance to sit through and explore its contents?- 6025 replies

Not hyped for the F91? Man, that may be the best MB out of the bunch until the Quan releases. Though I did somehow end up with three F91s, no idea how, during the madness. Sold all except the one. Now just waiting for the option set. Gotta support the only non Seed and 00 release homie!- 6025 replies

Snagged it on hlj. Honestly, they have been the best of late on getting POs out of Japan. Hobby Search has turned into a 'why bother' cart jack situation with their pretty terrible re-sign at checkout processes. Almost ditto for cdjapan, which I have benefited from cart jacking someone else after I was cart jacked during the F91 preorder. Biggest issue with hlj is finding the damn PO to begin with! I will say hlj does give you a scare in recalling the blue frame (I think) release where the server went nuts and oversold inventory, resulting in the "Thank you for your oversold order" fiasco. They have fixed it pretty well now, which allows for a bit of patience until you receive your notification email a couple minutes later. Big props to the poster who linked the preorder last night on MWF at 2:02am - I was able to cast my net out and reel in the preorder for this thing!- 6025 replies

Hey, anyone know when the Sazabi Formania EX goes up for preorder? I saw that the release date has been set, just nothing on when the PO starts. Thanks.- 6025 replies
